Question

What is the midpoint of a line segment connecting the points (−4,6) and (8,2)?

Answer 1

Answer:

(2,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Add the 2 x-values together, then divide. The resulting number is the x-value of the midpoint. -4+8=4 and 4/2=2, so the x-value is 2

2. Do the above steps (add & divide) for the two y-values. 6+2=8 and 8/2=4, so the y-value is 4

3. put the two values together in a coordinate pair & you have your midpoint! so if x=2 and y=4, then the midpoint is (2,4)

hope this helps :)

Answer 2

The answer is 2,4 hope this helps
